Notes to the Paper - 24 December 2010



With Christmas just around the corner, this week’s round up will be short and sweet. The youth club members went ice skating last Friday night and all came home in one piece after having a great time. Santa is back in Lapland now and asked us to express his thanks to everyone in Cappoquin who came out to see him and especially to Michael and John O’Rourke for their wonderful assistance with lawnmowers and lunch respectively. Santa also said how much he enjoyed the Cinderella Story and the Sale of Work while in town also.

The Cappoquin Christmas Collection set of cards is now in the black as far as costs are concerned and we hope to build on this initiative next year and help people to send just a little bit of home to those who may be far away. May we thank everyone in the place who organised an event or a game, a concert or a market, a carnival or a parade for the marvellous work you are all doing to keep our community going. Our picture this week is from our top-selling Christmas card, a painting by Noel O’Donoghue of a night-time carol scene at the Square. Best wishes to all for Christmas and the New Year.
